Re: [ide-dev] Eclipse is more memory-efficient than Intellij

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for sharing Mickael. As lots of memory work went into 4.9 and
4.10 I believe the results would be even better with the latest
version. I see already several comments from Eclipse people in
https://dzone.com/articles/memory-efficient-ide-eclipse-or-intellij
requesting more data or new tests with the latest Eclipse version.

Let's see if get updated results.
